Summer Festival Digital Concerts:
Songs Without words: WOMEN IN MUSIC IN THE MIDDLE AGES AND RENAISSANCE – AVAILABLE August 22 | BUY A SINGLE TICKET
This recital by EMV’s Artist-in-Residence Catalina Vicens features songs without words on medieval organetto, virginals, harpsichord and organ. In Medieval and Renaissance times, only courtesans or women living in exceptional circumstances, like Isabella d’Este, were permitted to sing in public. They found ways around this by playing the keyboard and letting their fingers do the talking. Click here for more details.
OUR CITY OF LADIES – AVAILABLE August 22 | BUY A SINGLE TICKET
Founded and directed by Catalina Vicens, Servir Antico breathes new life into European vocal and instrumental music from the age of Renaissance humanism. With Our City of Ladies, the ensemble continues to explore The City of Ladies, an allegorical city conceived by Christine de Pizan (1364-1430) to defend and protect women and their right to education. Servir Antico’s journey is to expand the walls of the City started five centuries ago and to invite everyone to take part in its existence. Click here for more details.
THE LADIES VESPERS – AVAILABLE August 22 | BUY A SINGLE TICKET
During the 17th century, women composers were most often either nuns educated in convents or the daughters of musical families such as Florence’s Caccini clan. The works presented in this concert come from both the secular and sacred worlds of 17th-century Italy, written for celebration in the cloister and private devotion in the home. This music abounds with all the inventiveness, refinement, and energy of the age of Monteverdi. Click here for more details.
MILTON IN LOVE: THE BIRTH OF OPERA IN THE ETERNAL CITY – AVAILABLE August 22 | BUY A SINGLE TICKET
Milton in Love paints a portrait of the English poet John Milton’s sojourn through Rome where he fraternized with the Illuminati, attended opera and oratorios, and became enamoured with the singing of soprano Leonora Baroni. The laments display the sensuality, ecstasy, and eroticism of early Baroque Rome, and the performances by Erin Headley and her ensemble are sure to surprise and delight audiences as well.
Together with a chitarrone, triple harp, baroque guitar, lirone and viola da gamba, the ensemble supports a trio of female voices who bring to life a multimedia programme of ultra-expressive laments. Click here for more details.
